Just awful

Rating: 3/10 (25 November 2013)

After all the hype it was a complete let down. It was a mash of all the manned-robot movies or games that you have ever seen. The monsters were boring (thankfully they didn't really feature that much) and the robots were just robots. The plot tried to explain the reason for the monsters appearance: totally unimaginative.
It was CGI in the extreme. The robots were bigger and more powerful, the backgrounds were unrealistic. Everything was so overdone and unreal.
The story line was positively infantile. Before quarter way through I felt sorry for the actors who were trying so hard to overcome this pathetic script. I don't know why I watched to the end. Maybe I thought there had to be something more to the plot. Mistake.
Bigger doesn't mean better and this movie proves it. The three points awarded are for those suffering actors.
